Search flights from PBJ to ULB
Mount Lopevi
An incredible view of one of the most active and perfectly shaped stratovolcanoes in the Pacific, rising steeply from the sea.
Volcanic Plumes
Distant sightings of ash and steam rising from the central craters of Marum and Benbow on Ambrym's plateau.
Black Sand Coast
The striking contrast of dark volcanic sands against the white surf along the southeastern shores of Ambrym.
The right side is essential for volcano enthusiasts. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff for Lopevi. Try to book a flight in the early morning when volcanic smoke is often trapped in the valley layers, creating a dramatic atmosphere.

Paama Coastline
Aerial views of the rugged western cliffs and hidden coves of Paama Island shortly after takeoff.
Coral Reefs
Scanning the turquoise shallow waters between Paama and Ambrym for coral formations and marine life.
Ambrym Rainforest
Dense, untouched tropical canopy covering the southern slopes of Ambrym Island as you descend.
Sit on the left if you prefer looking out toward the open sea and the distant silhouettes of Malekula Island. Morning flights are ideal to have the sun behind you, illuminating the vibrant greens of the rainforest without glare.
